Christmas Night Poem by Randy McClave

Christmas bells they all are ringing
Children choirs everywhere are singing,
As we all heard of the star shining bright
So with happiness we sing for that light,
As tonight, it is Christmas night.

Christmas songs are being sung
Church bells everywhere are being rung,
I see happiness and joy and delight
The lawns now are snow covered white,
As tonight, it is Christmas night.

Christmas drinks are now being poured
For the rich man and also the poor,
We all hope to see a happy sight
We feel compassion with all of our might,
As tonight, it is Christmas night.

Christmas lights they are blinking
Holiday toasts people are drinking,
The world is happy and loud and not quite
We all have received a soulful invite,
As tonight, it is Christmas night.

Christmas kisses to all are given
No ones soul is ever unforgiven,
Together hymns and songs we will recite
We know our wrongs, but we try to do right,
As tonight, it is Christmas night.

Christmas hopes are being made
Christmas wishes are being prayed,
Once long ago a newborn child had cried
Now we feel that warmth and joy inside,
As tonight, it is Christmas night.
